paypal email scams

I get these paypal email scams ALL the time. It is really just one of so many phishing scams that put up mock versions of legitimate financial services and institutions such as Wells Fargo, Western Union, Bank of America and others in order to trick some of their customers into giving up usernames, passwords and account information.
Notice that the URL adress bar goes to IP: 202.181.96.33
This IP goes to somewhere in Australia and not PayPal. NEVER go to these mock sites and give your information. If you think something maybe wrong with your account after receiving an email make sure you open a NEW BROWSER and type the url in your self.
